This series has been such a pleasure to read and to listen to. Different authors for each one and all that I have listened to, have been brought to life by some of the best narrators anyone could ever wish to hear. These two guys were simply wonderful. The story centers around Kolby and Adam, who were a great couple that I knew I was going to like from their first run-in where they clashed a little bit but were also still both super attracted to one another. They were both in awkward situations where they weren’t at their best. Kolby on the ice doing lessons and Adam in improv class which he thought he was going to hate...but turned out he didn't, and it was mostly because of Kolby. Still, it made them a little more vulnerable. Once Adam's team found out about the two of them, all but one member immediately became super supportive to Adam. That’s what we need more of in this world. Those Moo U boys really are unparalleled. Things weren't always a bed of roses for them...they had a big break-up and a bigger getting back together. Why can’t these characters just stop and talk things out? I guess that's what makes the getting back together so much better, and I guess it would make the story much shorter:) Overall, it was a good story...great characters and a happy ending.… (más)

I love the World of True North that Sarina Bowen has created so I was beyond thrilled to find out that other authors would be writing books set in this world. Regina Kyle is an author I have read before and this book was just as good as her others. The Vino & Veritas series has been a fun read from to start to these final few books.

I loved this book and Kaleb but especially Adam. I thought it was great that Moo U was tied into this book and I enjoyed it from its first to its last page. This book was a great way to end a wonderful series.

I am so sad that this batch of Vino and Veritas titles are the final ones in the series because I have enjoyed them so much. I am very glad to have read them as it introduced me to a whole new set of authors I can add to my TBR pile. I am sure there will be more books set in the World of True North and I cannot wait to read them.… (más)

Good compilation with something for everyone. Very well worth the .99 cents for Amy Lamont's and Kaylie Newell's books alone! Warning - there's a couple of mini-spoilers towards the end of this review.
I really loved Amy Lamont's Please Have Snow - a followup on one of the characters we met in her Holiday Encounters series. The story is steamy, but also humorous and sweet too. There were a few moments where I actually laughed out loud. Christmas Eve by Kaylie Newell was also great, though a shorter novella. This is a second chance at love story, also steamy with some intense emotional scenes. Sizzling in Snowflakes by Elisabeth Mayer was ok -a young adult novella which I usually don't tend to prefer. I enjoyed the story of the primary characters, Kate and Ryan. The book as a whole, however, leans more towards erotica with some unconventional sexual situations that may not appeal to some readers. Regina Kyle's Sugar Plum Seduction is a quick, light read - a nice story, but would have preferred it longer with a little more depth of characters and plot. I began reading Ringing in the New by Nola Cross and Operation Christmas by Megan Ryder but couldn't really get into them so did not finish. Likewise I did not finish Nina Bancroft's A Holiday Prospect - I couldn't get past Lind's behavior, as a boss, towards Tessa - it completely turned me off when he moved himself into her trailer without telling her - so inappropriate, despite the fact they were attracted to each other. All in all, the collection is good and has introduced me to a couple of new authors that I'll be watching for more books by. *I was provided an ARC for an honest review.… (más)
